Summary:The present disclosure generally relates to deploying a proxy control plane and/or north-south data plane in a control virtual private cloud of a logical network implemented on a software-defined datacenter. The control virtual private cloud is shared by a plurality of compute virtual private clouds of the network. In some embodiments, a proxy control plane is deployed on the control virtual private cloud and disseminates policies directly to endpoints of the logical network. In some embodiments, a north-south data plane is deployed on the control virtual private cloud and directly manages north-south network traffic from endpoints of the logical network. In some embodiments, a proxy control plane and a north-south network data plane are deployed on the control virtual private cloud.
